Description

RACEMISATION AND ASYMMETRIC TRANSFORMATION PROCESSES USED IN THE MANUFACTURE OF LEVOBUPIVACAINE
AND ANALOGUES THEREOF Field of the Invention This invention relates to the racemisation and dynamic resolution of optically-enriched heterocyclic carboxanilides, e.g. piperidine-2-carboxanilides such as levobupivacaine. Background of the Invention Compounds of formula 1 (see formulae, below) wherein R is methyl, n-propyl, n-butyl or cyclopropyl and R is a 2,6-dimethylphenyl have utility as local anaesthetics. Biological studies have shown that (S)-enantiomers of such compounds display lower cardiotoxicity than the corresponding racemates whilst maintaining the same anaesthetic potency, and are therefore potentially more beneficial for clinical uses. Thus there is a requirement for efficient processes to manufacture compounds of formula 1 in the form of single enantiomers. For this purpose, conventional resolution approaches invariably afford up to 50% of the unwanted enantiomer. To improve atom utilisation in such processes, it is desirable to recycle the unwanted enantiomer by effecting its racemisation to provide material suitable for subsequent resolution. Additional benefits may be attainable by "asymmetric transformation", comprising simultaneous racemisation and crystallisation-induced resolution in a one-pot process.
Fyhr et al , Acta Pharm. Suecica 25(3) :121-132 (1988), disclose the racemisation of ropicavaine hydrochloride (1.HC1, R1 = Λ-propyl, R2 = 2,6-dimethylphenyl, absolute configuration = S) in dilute aqueous solution at pH 1-6, using HC1, and 80-130°C. The results are presented as a preformulation stability study and merely serve to indicate that ropivacaine racemises slowly in aqueous media. Shiraiwa et al , Bull. Chem. Soc. Jpn. 64:3251-3255 (1991) , disclose asymmetric transformation of 2-piperidine- carboxylic acid, by heating in an alkanoic acid solvent in the presence of an chiral acid resolving agent and an aldehyde. The latter component is believed to assist racemisation by formation of a cationic Schiff base intermediate, a mechanistic pathway which can also operate on piperidine-2-carboxanilides 1 only in cases where R1 = H. Again, this process is unsuitable for operation on a manufacturing scale, not least because it uses environmentally-unacceptable reagents. Summary of the Invention The present invention is based on the suprising discovery that N-heterocyclic-2-carboxanilides, including compounds of formula l wherein R is H, methyl, n-propyl, n-butyl or cyclopropyl and R2 is phenyl optionally substituted with one or more methyl groups, undergo rapid racemisation when heated in solution in the presence of a carboxylic acid R C02H wherein R is either n-alkyl or aryl (exemplified in Scheme 1) or any acid having a pKa of -1 to +6, relative to water. The reaction can be carried out in a wholly or substantially non-aqueous system, e.g. either in a solution of neat acid or in the presence of an inert cosolvent such as xylene or toluene. The presence of residual salt forms of compounds of formula 1, e.g. as the result of resolution using a chiral resolving agent, do not impede the efficiency of the process. A preferred embodiment of the invention is the racemisation of bupivacaine (1, R = n-butyl, R2 = 2,6- dimethylphenyl) enriched in one enantiomer, preferably the (J?)-enantiomer, by heating with propanoic acid or butanoic acid. A suitable cosolvent such as xylene allows the reaction to be conducted at optimum temperature, i.e. about 130°C. Compared to the prior art, this process, and processes of the invention in general, afford significant advantages since neither dilute aqueous solutions ([l] <50 mM) nor extended reactions times are required. As a further feature of the invention, it has been discovered that asymmetric transformation of the N- heterocyclic-2-carboxanilides can be achieved by including a chiral acid resolving agent as an additional component in the processes described above (exemplified in Scheme 2) . Two variants of such transformations are possible: firstly, a one-pot process in which a given enantiomer of the carboxanilide is converted to its optical antipode by heating to effect racemisation, followed by addition of a chiral acid, resulting in diastereoselective crystallisation of a salt; and secondly, the use of pre-formed racemic carboxanilide as a starting material. Any suitable chiral acid can be used; examples include L- and D-tartaric acid, and 0,0-dibenzoyl and 0,0-ditoluoyl derivatives thereof; (R)- and (S)-10-camphorsulphonic acid; (J?)- and (S)-mandelic acid; (R)- and (S)-malic acid; (R) - and (S) -1 ,l -binaphthyl-2,2,-diyl hydrogen phosphate; and abietic acid.
An important aspect of this invention relates to the ability to operate the process on an industrial scale. This in turn means that the optically-enriched carboxanilides themselves, e.g. obtained by resolution but to an extent that the predominant enantiomer is insufficiently enantiopure for immediate use, become useful products. This applies to mixtures of enantiomers in which one, usually the (R)-enantiomer, is present in an enantiomeric excess of 20 to 80%, preferably 25 to 75%, more preferably 30 to 70%, and most preferably 35 to 65%, with respect to its optical antipode. For example, a mixture enriched in (iR)-bupivacaine can be used practically, by racemisation of the mixture and subsequent resolution. The following Example illustrates the invention. Example
A stirred mixture of (S)-bupivacaine (0.140 g, 0.49 mmol) and propanoic acid (3.5 ml) was heated to reflux under a nitrogen atmosphere for 7 hours. The resulting solution was cooled and then poured into a mixture of distilled water (20 ml) and ethyl acetate (20 ml)'. Aqueous ammonia (28% w/v) was added until the pH of the aqueous layer was 10. The organic layer was separated and the aqueous layer extracted with ethyl acetate (20 ml) . The combined organic extracts were washed with distilled water (20 ml) , dried (MgS04) and concentrated under reduced pressure to give racemic bupivacaine (0.137 g, 98%).
